From fundamentals to plant operations, Albright's Chemical Engineering Handbook offers a thorough, yet succinct guide to day-to-day methods and calculations used in chemical engineering applications. Leaders from an exceptional diversity of specialties provide a clear review of basic information, case examples, and references to additional information. They discuss essential principles, calculations, and key issues such as reaction engineering, process control and design, waste disposal, and electrochemical and biochemical engineering. The final chapters cover aspects of patents, intellectual property, communications, and ethics that are most relevant to engineers.
Reviews / Votes
"Professor Albright has done a fine job of bringing together a large number of contributions that cover the sector well. Many good examples are included throughout the text on the application of fundamental principles to engineering practice. This is a text that "grows" on a reader.""...Several chapters in this (Albright's) volume, particularly those on the fundamental aspects of fluid flow, heat and mass transfer, are written in a very "accessible" form that students and practitioners are likely to find very useful indeed. There are essential and well balanced chapters on patents and intellectual property and ethics, and there is sensible advice on communication. Overall, I would strongly recommend that libraries and departments in universities, as well as consultants and industrial engineers, purchase this book."
-Professor Tim Langrish, The University of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, in Drying Technology, Vol. 27, No. 6, 2009.
